RALPH POWELL
WINS STATE NET
CHAMPIONSHIP
And He and Bill Adams
Win Team Event Two
Seward Lads Lose to
Omahans.
Ralph Duke Powell, city tennis
champion, defeated Guy Williams
for the championship in the Ncbras
ka state net tourney at the Field
club yesterday afternoon in three
straight sets, 6-1. 6-0, 6-2.
Powell and Bill Adams, city dou
bles champs, defeated Ed Gieson
and "Scotty" McKillup of Seward
for the state doubles title yesterday
in three straight sets, 6-2, 6-1, 6-3.
Gieson and McKillup won the dou
bles in the 1917 state patriotic tour
ney.
Gieson and McKillun received the
right to play in the finals by win
ning trie tilth set of a postponed
matcn in tne morning from Harry
Koch and Joe Adams by the score
of 6-0.
In the Fowell-Williams match,
the champion was never in any dan
ger of losing a set. Had he not
let up a bit in the last set, Williams
would have gone with only one
game for the entire match.
Powell Outguesses Veteran.
Powell hit the corners and kept
Williams running. Alternating
straight drives with his cross-shots,
Powell outguessed the veteran, and
easily defeated him after the first
few games. But a word for Wil
liams. He played splendid ball. He
knows the game, but he lacked the
speed of his younger opponent.
Ralph took the first four sets.
Williams took the fifth game, but
Powell took the next two and the
set.
Doubles More Interesting.
The doubles were far more inter
esting than the singles' finals, at
'least, during the first four games,
when the Powell-Adams machine
was just warming up- That was the
only time Gieson and McKilluo
were in me umanans class, uma-
lia took the first game on the cham
pion's serve. The visitors took the
second and fourth games. Then
Bill and Ralph just naturally took
the next four games and set. The
final game went to deuce a couple
of times, but powell and Adams put
on the finishing touches 'and won
the state championship.
.rowell and Adams took the net
throughout the match, the visitors
attempting to lob to keep them in
the bickcourt. Powell was more
erratic in the doubles than he was in
the singles. McKillup and Gieson
netted many balls.
Georee Stocking won' the sincles
m the consolidation round yester
day afternoon from Sid Dillingham,
6- 2, 6-3. Stocking advanced to the
finals by defeating Al Mayer yes
terday morning, 7-5,6-3. and Clayton

Colleges and Clubs Begin
Foot Ball Preparations
Early foot ball preparation is un
der way among many college and
club athletes.
Here's Measurements on
Man o'War, Champ Racer
. Man O'War, the champion 3-year-old
race horse, stands 16 hands
two inches in' height, weighs 1,100
pounds and is 72 inches in girth.
The Cadillac owner knows that he can
depend upon his car to do the same
things, in the same way, whenever and
wherever he calls upon it to do them.
The Cadillac does not, as one owner has
aptly said, meet a man with' a smile one
day, and a snarl the next. It is a stable,
steadfast, faithful friend, and he knows
it will not fail him.
